Attention Amazon shoppers: Be prepared to pay more when you purchase goods, depending on where you live.
The online retail giant will start charging sales tax in eight additional states in coming years, starting with California and Pennsylvania in September, as it puts down physical roots in more places. Amazon already collects sales tax in six states.
That means many customers will have to dig a little deeper into their pockets when buying on the Internet, which some people see as a refuge from sales taxes.

Totally sucks. Last place that doesn't suck in Cali to buy with no tax. The government here threw a fit to get them to have to tax people here. I guess it is quite a bit of money that this state should get but still.

This is so true. Once Newegg started charging me sales tax because of their warehouse in Edison, NJ I stopped buying from them, added Amazon Prime, and now buy everything through them. I also go to Microcenter, but that's for CPU's and the 3.5% sales tax.
